    I mean you are definitely correct. The response to a kid dying still shouldn’t be joking about how dumb he was.

    All kids are dumb; they’re kids. That’s the point. A society that lets kids get their hands on guns untrained has already failed.

        and both conservatives and liberals seem to love shitting on the other party, more than actually fucking educating people about this shit. Granted i’ve seen quite a few respectable people that do. I just wish it was more of a thing within the gun community, and inside of the gun control crowd as well.

        Politics as per usual makes things stupider than they need to be.

      Yeah but we’ve gone so far beyond societal failure that these events are now normalized. Sure it’s a dead kid, one of hundreds this year alone. This one was at least killed by their own hand, as opposed to another kid. Since our society refuses to do anything about gun control or safety, we’ll see hundreds more shot kids before the end of this year.

      You can either joke about it or collapse under the sheer horror of it all.
